"Robbie Collier Sublett is an astoundingly acrobatic Finn – fittingly young and confident, making the most of Doug Elkins’ joyous choreography.”

Mabou Mines celebrates 40 years of creating groundbreaking theater with the world premiere of FINN, a digital and live-action adventure based on the ancient Celtic legend of Finn McCool. This original theatrical work blends traditional storytelling and music with large-scale digital technology. Finn McCool, part mortal, part magical, battles his boyhood demons and emerges a young man ready to lead his band of men. Live performers interact with digital animation in a 21st century adaptation of a timeless legend. In keeping with the Mabou Mines tradition of adapting classics such as Peter & Wendy, Mabou Mines DollHouse, and Mabou Mines Lear, FINN offers a sophisticated and engaging interpretation of the Celtic legend of Finn McCool re-imagined for a new generation of theatergoers.
